Integration management system for patient table

An X-ray radiology device comprising a rotating and flat lift. For this X-ray device to operate correctly, it is necessary to obtain and maintain, for all the incidence angles, a perfect alignment of the focal point of the X-ray tube, the element observed and the detector. This geometric imperative is achieved in one embodiment by means of a compensation system. The compensation system includes a cam fitted to a free end of the lift. The compensation system includes a lever in contact with the profile of the cam. The lever is in contact with the detector or the tube connected to the lift. Thus, when the lift rotates, the cam pushes the lever, which in return pushes the tube or the detector in order to align it.

X-ray device

An X-ray apparatus has hollow motors providing hinge joints for a mobile part in rotation relative to a reference part. Each of the motors includes a rotor fixed to the mobile part as well as a stator fixed to the reference part. The axis of these motors is indistinguishable from the axis around which the mobile part can go into rotation. The motors facilitate an assembling of the parts of the apparatus in permitting cables or wires to cross through the hollow motors. The hinge joints provide a direct transmission between the mobile and reference parts.
